UCAN Student Ambassadors

The UC Advocacy Network (UCAN) is a community made up of students, alumni, faculty and community members who lend their voices to shape state and federal policies promoting the University of California’s mission of education, research and public service.

Student ambassadors will help grow UCAN membership by communicating to a wide range of students on their home campus. UCAN ambassadors will gain hands-on experience in public affairs and civic engagement, get an inside look at how the University of California advances policies and advocate on behalf of UC with legislators at the state capitol in the spring!
